Turkey schnitzel is a lean and crispy dish that originates from European cuisine, particularly inspired by the Austrian tradition of schnitzel. Made by coating tender turkey cutlets in seasoned breadcrumbs and lightly frying or baking until golden brown, this dish offers a high-protein alternative to traditional pork or veal schnitzel. Turkey is rich in essential nutrients such as B vitamins, selenium, and low in saturated fat compared to other meats, making it a heart-healthy option. For a healthier preparation, it can be pan-fried using minimal oil or baked for reduced fat content. While the breading and frying can increase calorie and fat intake, serving it alongside fresh vegetables or a light salad balances the meal. Turkey schnitzel is a versatile and satisfying dish suitable for those looking for a lighter twist on a classic comfort food.
